As a fashion designer, people often ask me for style advice, from what to wear to a wedding to how to dress for success. So, I’ve decided to share my top 10 style rules of all time. Whether you’re a novice starting from square one or a fashion veteran who wants to mix it up, there’s a little something here for everyone. I hope you enjoy and share your own style rules with me in the comments below.

With a degree in fine arts from The Rhode Island School of Design and a degree from l'Ecole de la Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture Parisienne in Paris, Nicole Miller combines her art training with couture technique. This, along with her French heritage, has given her a unique style and vision. Her irreverent style of clothing has been worn by celebrities such as Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston, Beyonce, Blake Lively and Eva Longoria, among others.

When not designing, Nicole is an avid skier, wake-boarder, traveler and foodie. She lives with her husband Kim and their son Palmer in New York City, spending weekends in Sag Harbor.
